[mch2021-orga] sustainability in the camp

[Julius]

Hi Oscar,

The altpwr team had some solar panels on the field, however the issue 
here is that when there is no sun, there is no power... And especially 
with these powerhungry hackers they will drain the batteries rather 
quickly. Also consider the environmental issues you have when a battery 
starts leaking or gets left behind? Best alternative would be mains 
power, less mess.
